What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?
ease of management. Our partners were looking for a high end property. The location. Down town Allentown is on a big upswing. These units are located across the street from a very active hockey arena, a few breweries, nice restaurants, and the new building of one of the largest employers in the city. The proximity to the employer was key. This company has a tendency to hire young professionals and pays quite well.
How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?
